The first lost tooth

FINALLY....Torin lost his first tooth. He had been waiting and waiting and waiting. Everyone had been loosing their teeth...except Torin. We were at church on Saturday night and he showed us that it was loose with his tongue and he was so excited. It wasn't until we got home that we saw a different side of it. He got really quiet and then said "I've been wanting to loose a tooth for so long and now that it's here I don't know if I want to." I really have never seen him so nervous, afraid and just not sure of himself. He seriously had tears in his eyes. He didn't want to eat pizza for dinner because he thought it would hurt...so Mom made him soup. That night while we were drinking hot chocolate in front of the Christmas tree all of a sudden said "AHHH...it fell out". His excitement returned when he realized that it didn't hurt for it to fall out. He took Bjorn and I put his arms around us and said that he was sorry for not trusting us that it wouldn't hurt. He's really too sweet sometimes :)

Too nervous to eat pizza

You can see how much the tooth is pushing up
RELIEF...it's out and it wasn't painful :)
